My husband is 77+ and still works 4 days a week....he is not on Medicare,

i'm curious, WHY is he not on medicare?

mr. md turned 65 last year and he still works full time in our business and he signed up as soon as he was eligible......the only thing that changed on our group plan was he was shifted onto a 'medicare advantage' plan, while the rest of the group were kept on their current coverage...

btw, we got a letter from our insurer informing us that we have until dec. 1 (well in advance of our 'anniversary date) to continue our existing plan for the next year (yet another obamacare loophole?) there is 'only' a 3% rate increase (however we were hit hard in the previous 2 years once obamacare was signed into law)

we have not made a decision to continue or not....we pay full medical and obviously it would be a LOT cheaper for us to cancel, give employees a 'raise' equivalent to the premiums we are paying now and say 'you're on your own' and the blame goes straight to obama, a point which will be made quite clear in the staff meeting informing them <ng>
